This week on Totally 80’s and 90’s Recall, Dave, Rob, and Kurt kick off the Christmas season with a look back at Scrooged from 1988—a darkly funny and totally 80s reimagining of A Christmas Carol. Starring Bill Murray as Frank Cross, a cold-hearted TV executive who learns the true meaning of Christmas through a surreal series of ghostly visits, the movie blends sharp satire with slapstick chaos. The guys dive into Murray’s perfectly unhinged performance, the film’s biting take on holiday commercialism, and how director Richard Donner managed to balance heart and hilarity in a way that still hits decades later.
From ghostly cab drivers to explosive TV specials gone wrong, Dave, Rob, and Kurt relive all the absurd moments that make Scrooged such a unique holiday staple. They also share behind-the-scenes trivia, favorite quotes, and their favorite moments in the movie. Whether you remember catching it in theaters or on VHS, this episode is a festive deep dive into one of the most delightfully twisted Christmas comedies of the 80s.
